    $9.49 for a value duet isn't much of a value, considering other state locations are $7.99. It's be different if you could customize them but you can't. Bagged soups, heat and scoop, are watery compared to previous orders. Also all the herbs are tough and black, it's like chewing on a stick. These are corporate issues that need to be addressed. No wonder most people are sip club members who sit all day drinking coffee and working on computers, not ordering food. It's overpriced and quality is sunpar at best.

    I just begun to trust this store again from an incident last year. I ordered a whole salad, and consuming some of it I found a curly hair in it. GROSS. I can remember back in the day when the Health Department required food workers to wear hair nets for this very reason. Now hair is just flying and swinging all over the place. It's back to preparing my own food. Disgusting.

    Too bad they don't have a microwave to heat up the soup. Looks steamy but not that hot.
